2022 World Cup Qualifiers: Uganda allowed Rwanda too much space despite win – Sredojevic

Uganda coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic believes his team sat back and allowed Rwanda to dominate possession despite beating them 1-0 in their Group E clash in the World Cup qualifiers on Sunday.

The Cranes successfully sealed the double over Amavubi after Fahad Bayo scored in the 22nd minute to punish them as he did in the first meeting three days ago, when he scored to hand them another 1-0 win at Nyamirambo Stadium in Kigali.

Despite hauling six points from the two matches, Sredojevic was not satisfied with how his team resorted to defending the slim advantage, especially in the second half of their match at St Mary’s Kitende Stadium in Kampala.
